I found this interesting video on Tiktok on a new field that is being developed in the medical industry namely satellite surgeons. The video depicts on how doctors in China are utilizing the combination of satellites and robots obtain plus share data and at the same time perform operations on patients that are thousands of kilometers away. The two disruptive technologies can have a positive impact for patients and will enable doctors to assist other specialists in the medical field of performing operations almost anywhere across the world 🌎 #disruptivetechnologies #satellites #robots #medicalindustry #operations #medicaloperations #china

It's remote working on a whole new level. Doctors at the People's Liberation Army Hospital conducted 5 operations in total. The patients were in Beijing, but the surgeons were thousands of kilometres away in three different cities. They used a robotic system to perform procedures involving the liver, pancreas and gallbladder. That system relied on a high speed satellite. The surgeons movements would be translated into data, which would be sent up to the satellite, then down to the robotic system working on the patient feedback. Data would then be sent in the opposite direction. All in all, the data would travel nearly 150,000 kilometers. And yet the surgeons could do their jobs as if they were in the same room as their patients. The technology could connect patients with surgeons in ways we've never seen before. For example, it's possible that doctors could treat injured soldiers without going anywhere near the frontline. But it's important to remember patients can't undergo these operations just anywhere. They would still need to be in a facility with sophisticated infrastructure. There may be some way to go, but these operations suggest that one day a satellite surgeon could save someone's life.

Another key step in making satellites smart! As Space gets more and more crowded, it's critical that satellites can see and understand their environment and can take actions based on it.

VIAVI Marconi Labs is delighted to share our latest work entitled "Differential Sensing for Rank-Limited Communications", which is now in Early Access in IEEE Wireless Communications Letters. As a candidate technology for 6G, joint communications and sensing (JCAS) aims at adding sensing functionality (traditionally provided by radars) to the communications networks by reusing communication hardware and signals. As specified by 3GPP, JCAS can enable new use cases including sensing of UAVs, humans, automotive vehicles by communication networks in 6G era. In this work, we investigate JCAS for a bi-static scenario where two separate nodes are performing sensing of passive objects. The developed technique provides novel sensing operations using existing communication signals. The method maintains stable communications performance to the mobile users while performing accurate object sensing. The paper can be found here: https://lnkd.in/eVZpiW7h This work is supported in part by the UK Department for Science, Innovation and Technology under the Future Open Networks Research Challenge project TUDOR (Towards Ubiquitous 3D Open Resilient Network). VIAVI Marconi Labs is looking forwards to working with academic and industrial partners in advanced wireless and AI research & innovation. #6G #TUDOR #IntergratedSensingandCommunications #Beamforming #AI #VIAVIMarconiLabs #DSIT
